When I was writing commercial code that went into "the wild" we had a policy to wrap the entire main program in a try/except that logged all error output in a file (on the server). If it was a PC desktop app you could email it to a support site - although I've never personally written commercial apps other than server side. Our main concern was to prevent spooking the user, but nowadays the security risk is definitely valid too. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
